My Wife and I are amateur photographers and we spend a lot of time apart from each other do to my job in the Army. This book was great for us because it had a collection of good ideas for settings and props, along with an entry level photography 101 approach to the mechanics of taking pictures.

We used the book as an initial reference and as a starting point for our email based photo exchanges. The section on digital editing/correcting/styling was very useful. I would recommend that anyone even interested in buying this book should purchase a decent digital photo editing program to play around with while they explore the book.

If you already know your way around a darkroom then look for another more technical book to satiate you. However, if you have limited experience with cameras and a beautiful willing partner to practice with then I recommend this book for you.

We found this book to be one of those that had a foot in each camp, so to speak, giving some technical and some 'psychological' tips that apply to taking nude photo's of your partner. While the concept is good, the execution was lacking, and the book was a bit light in both areas.

Personally we would have preferred something a little more technical, perhaps even formulaic, showing how (settings, lighting diagrams, etc) particular shots were achieved.

The writing style was another thing we found odd. It had a rather stilted, almost academic feel to it, rather than a friendly, chatty, 'hey guys, you want to take dirty pictures of your wife, here's how..." feel to it, which is apparently where this book is aimed. Feel free to disagree.

Finally, the fact that the author says the entire book's photo's were shot the day the book was due at the printers speaks volumes. A book's photo's shot in a day or two ? They were average, not great, or even particularly good.

Clink, clink, 2c deposited.

When I came across this book, I figured that this would be interesting to see how this book would help me take better nude pictures at home. I have taken many nude pictures of my wife and this book has helped be do it better. has great ideas, helps you and your spouse feel good about ourselfs. If you like taking nude pictures of yourself or spouse, get this book. It will help you do alot more.

The book gave a lot of ideas. There did seem to be mostly women in the book. I would have preferred more couple photos, otherwise a good book.

I found this book a good read and found a lot of good advice.
I would recomend it.

This book is about the vision of a couple, to taking nude photos.
